Da Nang, Day 5

We woke up to beautiful blue sky this morning. It was the first cloudless sky we have had since New Zealand. Today was museum day. We started at the Da Nang Museum of Cham Sculpture. The Champa Culture was in Southern Vietnam from the 2nd through the 19th centuries.

Statue of Gajasimha from the 12th century.

Then we went to the Da Nang museum. It was all about the history of Da Nang over the centuries.

Our dinner

For dinner we went to a Michelin listed restaurant, Bép Cuôn. We had to wait about 35 minutes for a table. We had a very tasty meal.
